Paving in Santa Clara: Engineering, ADA Title 24 compliance and zero downtime logistics.

Commercial Paving & Asphalt Services | Santa Clara County, CA | Engineering-Grade Quality

If you’re managing a commercial asset near San Jose Mineta International (SJC) or a tech campus along the Hwy 101 corridor, you already know: South Bay soil and heavy traffic are unforgiving. In Santa Clara County, we aren’t just fighting wear and tear we’re battling expansive clay soils and the strictest Title 24 ADA enforcement in the country. A cracked lot isn’t just an eyesore; in Silicon Valley, it’s a liability magnet.

Why We Are the Preferred Contractor in the South Bay

  1. Zero-Downtime Logistics: Whether it’s a retail hub in Santana Row or a R&D facility in Cupertino, we get it time is revenue. We phase our production (optimized TPH) to keep your gates open. We don’t just dump hot mix; we orchestrate a site flow that keeps your tenants happy.
  2. Title 24 Precision: California’s accessibility codes are a minefield. A 1% error in a ramp slope is a failed inspection and a potential lawsuit. We use laser-leveled grading to ensure your handicap stalls and paths of travel are 100% compliant from the first pour.
  3. The Paving Panda Pledge: We don’t use “off-the-shelf” mixes. We spec our aggregates for the specific thermal expansion seen in the Santa Clara Valley, ensuring a subgrade bond that won’t fail after two rainy seasons.

Local Field Reports (Proven Results)

  • San Jose Industrial District: Overhauled 65,000 sq. ft. of severe alligator cracking at a logistics hub near I-880. We didn’t just skin-patch it; we reinforced the subgrade to handle constant high-torque semi-truck maneuvers.
  • Palo Alto Tech Campus: Executed a high-density slurry seal and aesthetic refresh for a Tier-1 office park. Challenge: High-security access and a 48-hour window. Result: Completed 10 hours ahead of schedule with zero disruption to the Sunday night shift.
  • Milpitas Retail Center: Emergency pothole repair and ADA striping correction. We identified a drainage failure that was undermining the curb and gutter, fixed the root cause, and saved the client $40k in future subgrade replacement.

FAQ: Straight Talk from the Field

  • How long will a new lot last in Santa Clara? With the clay content in our local soil, if you aren’t crack-filling and sealcoating every 3 years, you’re throwing money away. A well-maintained lot here will give you 20+ years. If a contractor promises 30 years without a maintenance plan, they’ve never actually dug a hole in San Jose.
  • Can we pave during the “Rainy Season” in the Bay? It’s a gamble we don’t take. If moisture gets trapped in the base rock, the asphalt will “pump” and fail within months. We track micro-climates to hit the perfect installation window.
  • Does repaving trigger an ADA upgrade? Yes. Per 2026 California building standards, if you perform a “level of alteration” like an overlay, you are legally required to bring your path of travel up to current code.

ADA LEGAL DISCLAIMER: Santa Clara County is a hotspot for ADA litigation. Failure to comply with Title 24 during a paving project exposes property owners to significant statutory damages. Don’t cut corners on compliance.
